Hello,
i would like to design a planar spiral inductor on a PCB similar to the design on https://coil32.net/online-calculators/pcb-inductor-calculator.html. What is the recommended workflow for designing these inductors? Is there a tool that could help me? So far I have only found the "productivity toolbox" which is looks like requires payment. I've requested to demo it, but I'm looking for other less costly solutions in the meantime.
I figure I can make the square inductor by carefully setting my grid spacing and drawing it by hand, but I'm not sure how to make a circular one. I'm using these inductors for ~10 MHz LC-coupled power transfer circuits.
Ideally, I would be able to link this inductor to a schematic part (inductor) so I could take the schematic circuit from simulation to PCB design all in one project library.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Best,
Mike
